The KKK's website for its largest message board, Stormfront, has been knocked offline repeatedly, coming back with a plea from the KKK members who run it to donate help and money toward the site's security.

All that is news to me. Didn't know we were a KKK site. But we are still online. We have been getting heavier DDoS than normal, but nothing we haven't seen many times before. Our provider's multi-layered DDoS mitigation system is handling it before it reaches our servers, though there were some hiccups earlier.

How is it that the @KuKluxKlanUSA account has been openly hijacked for days, to the extent that the mainstream media has commented on it, and twitter still hasn't restored proper access or suspended the account?

For comparison I was suspended within minutes of a tweet that was critical of Obama's support for ISIS. I'm guessing Twitter (and most social media services) are at the very least complicit in this "operation".

When I saw this today, I thought they must have hacked ZDNet, the preeminent computer-related news outlet.

I gather some other sites have been kept offline by the attacks.

They use Check-Host.net to verify their attacks. On twitter they were bragging that SF was down (because of what check-host's results said) when the site was actually up and operating properly.

Anonymous is a few brilliant computer minds and a legion of useful idiots.

I think that it is important to learn from these idiots. We are in a new age where certain precautions are needed, especially from people like these guy's. You all know what I mean, educate yourselve's!!!!

They are spewing propaganda. They have clearly declared their anti white and anti American position. When they speak of those representing them in Ferguson. They are referring to the new black panthers and some other radical leftist groups that we have found out that they have ties to. Their attacks are not spontaneous or spurred simply by the acts of the TAK. That is just the excuse they put forth. The real agenda behind their cyber attacks is to further stir the pot presently brewing within this nation. The one that may come to a full boil when a decision in Ferguson is handed down. Their objective is not freedom of speech. But is actually race baiting. Just as all the agitators around Ferguson are doing in hopes of starting an all out race war. If not a full blown civil war.

I'd like to note that these people are not "hacking" anything. They are most likely successfully guessing the passwords on email accounts and using them to reset passwords on social media.

If you have any connection to the Klan or if you feel you may be a target of these commie dirtbags you should change your password to a mix of letters (lowercase and capitalized), numbers and symbols. Also make sure that your security questions are not easily gathered like "name of pet" or "school you graduated from" as these can be found with a simple facebook or google search. If you're using yahoo or gmail it may be wise to link your email account to your cellphone number as well.

I saw them gloating on twitter yesterday that one of the passwords on a compromised account was password1488. That should never happen if we take security at least half-way seriously.
